Ground Beef Mini Patties (With Hidden Veggies!)

1 In a bowl, combine the ground beef, grated carrot, egg, flour, garlic powder, thyme, and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper if using. Mix until fully combined.
2 Shape the mixture into small, thin patties. Keeping them thin helps them cook evenly and stay soft and tender for little ones.
3 Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through.
4 Let the patties cool slightly before serving to your toddler.
